Sumbul Touqeer on Colorism in the Industry

Sumbul Touqeer, an actress, recently talked about being judged in the past because of her skin color.

She thinks it's silly and old-fashioned to reject people based on how they look.

She remembers when this was a bigger problem and says it's now becoming less common.

Sumbul believes that talent and being right for a part are much more important than skin tone.

She feels annoyed that it was ever an issue at all, as the focus should be on stories and performances.
